• Are Appointments Required?  Yes, they are.  We can not guarantee service upon entry without an appointment.  Appointments receive priority and are highly recommended!  Appointments are not required for our daywear, sportswear, cruisewear and accessory departments.  

• Is there a charge to book an Appointment?  We have free appointments and upgraded VIP appointments that are not free.  Our free appointments allow less time than the VIP appointments.  Our free appointments do require a credit card to hold your appointment, there is no charge for the free appointments but if you do not show or give us at least 48 hours notice your credit card will be billed $50.   

• Why do I need to make an appointment?  Appointments allow us to know exactly how many people enter our showroom and allows us to give each person the service level you expect.  In addition the Cherry Hill township has a occupancy limit so we can not have more than a certain amount of people in the store at one time.  Browsers too must make an appointment or browse all our in stock dresses online from our "SHOP by SIZE" link.   If you walk in without an appointment you will be asked to book an appointment for whatever time is available that day if in fact an appointment to browse or try on is available.  We suggest you book your appointment a week in advance to get the time slot of your choice, weekends fill up about 2 weeks in advance. 

• Are all the dresses on www.JansBoutique.com actually in store for me to try on?   No they are not and we are transparent about what dresses are in store!  Jan's stocks up to 15,000 dresses in most sizes including Plus and Women's Sizes.  All the dresses we have in-stock are listed on our website with a GREEN rectangular tag on the bottom of the dress picture which says IN STOCK!  To see every dress we have in stock in your size then click onto the "SHOP by SIZE" link on our website.  Please note Jan's sells its dresses off-the-rack and online so our inventory is never 100% accurate.  If you are coming in for a specific dress we recommend you call us prior to booking your appointment. 

• Why is there a guest limit?  Due to Cherry Hill Occupancy Laws our Evening/Mother-of can only bring up to (2) guests, see Evening-Mother of appointment options.  Prom/Teen/Pre-teen and Bridesmaids appointments can only bring (1) guest into the store for a total of 2 people in your party and our Bridal appointments can bring (3) guests with yourself into the store for a total of 4 people in your party, a VIB non-refundable option is available to bring (5) guests.   Please note we do have options to bring an additional guests but that option is only available if you select our VIP appointment types. 

• Can I try on dresses with a friend or family member?  Yes, but please contact the store at 856-428-8181 to confirm there is availability to book two (2) people in your party to try on dresses any specific day (we have limited availability for 2 people in one party trying on each day).  Each person trying on must have their own appointment and we can not accomodate more than 2 people in your party to try on dresses on the same day.  

• Why is there a time limit to my Appointment?  To reduce everyones wait to try on dresses Jan's Evening and Bridal appointments are for 60 minutes and our Bridesmaids, Prom, Homecoming/Pre-Teen/Sweet 16/Bat Mitzvah/Quinceanara appointments are for 40 minutes and 55 minutes for our VIP appointment.  Please arrive on time as we can not extend your time if you arrive late.  We have found this to be enough time to try on multiple dresses, if you need more time then please know you can make an appointment for another day.  Please note we can not allow one person to book more than one appointment on any one day. 

• Can I bring beverages/food and my child into the store?  Unfortunately we do not allow food, beverages, strollers, animals, dogs or children 12 and under in store.

• How long does it take to order a dress?  Eveing and Prom dresses arriving from China (many of our designers) that have to be ordered are taking up to 3 to 6 months to be made and shipped.  Please note you can buy anyone of our amazing dresses from our stock (many customers do) and we also offer a handful US based designers where we can order dresses less than 2 months.  Words of advice......SHOP EARLY :)
